Feeding Tube X-Ray Picture

The X-Ray picture below shows the feeding tube inside the tortoise. Dr. Kramer was asked to X-RAY the tortoise to rule out the possibility that she was “Egg Bound” or had some type of intestinal impaction most likely a sand impaction. After reviewing the tortoise X-Ray, both of these intestinal ailments as well as being Egg Bound were ruled out as the Tortoise Radiograph clearly showed no signs of these issues.
